Summary: "Roland Yorke" by Mrs. Henry Wood is a novel written in the late 19th century. This engaging sequel to "The Channings" delves into themes of mystery and social intrigue, following the titular character, Roland Yorke, through a series of challenges that appear to intertwine with darker moments of tragedy and moral confrontation. At the start of the narrative, we are introduced to a cathedral town enveloped in the eerie calm of a moonlit night. As the town's residents gather in hushed whispers, we witness the burial of John Ollivera, a barrister who died by what is presumed to be suicide. However, the atmosphere thickens with mystery as Miss Alletha Rye asserts that Ollivera did not take his own life, igniting speculation and unease among the witnesses. The story quickly develops, hinting at underlying complexities of character relationships and the societal mores of the time, setting the stage for further exploration of the events that follow Ollivera’s abrupt demise.
